Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the effects of fluoro-loxoprofen, a new NSAID, to other NSAIDs like loxoprofen and celecoxib in treating inflammatory pain in rats.
  • Fluoro-loxoprofen provided similar pain relief but acted much faster, achieving peak effects within 1 hour compared to 2 hours for loxoprofen and 3 hours for celecoxib.
  • Additionally, fluoro-loxoprofen showed the same ability to suppress prostaglandin E levels in inflamed areas, suggesting it is an effective and quicker option for managing inflammatory pain with lower risks of gastrointestinal complications.
